NAME

IO::Socket::PortState::cPanel - Perl extension for checking if all the ports a cPanel server uses is open.

SYNOPSIS

use IO::Socket::PortState::cPanel qw(check_inbound);
my $hr = check_inbound($host,$timeout);

DESCRIPTION

Simplify IO::Socket::PortState use with cPanel servers. (http://cpanel.net/)

$inbound

Hashref of inbound ports suitable for use with IO::Socket::PortState::check_ports()

$outbound

Hashref of outbound ports suitable for use with IO::Socket::PortState::check_ports()

This would only make sense if you were running this check on the server that you were checking outbound ports on and use a host that does have those ports open :)

check_ports()

Its IO::Socket::PortState::check_ports()

check_inbound()

Shortcut to check_ports() but uses the $inbound for the hashref.

These are identicle:

my $hr = check_inbound($host, $timeout, [\&handler]);
my $hr = check_ports($host, $timeout, $inbound, [\&handler]);

check_outbound()

Shortcut to check_ports() but uses the $outbound for the hashref.

These are identicle:

my $hr = check_outbound($host, $timeout, [\&handler]);
my $hr = check_ports($host, $timeout, $outbound, [\&handler]);

EXPORT

None by default. check_inbound check_outbound check_ports $inbound $outbound are all exportable.
